Elsa helped my husband to get back his Chiropractic and Massage Treatment in no time. She is the best Attorney that her Predecessor could leave in his place. I highly recommend you contact this office for any issues with Workers' Compensation.
Mrs. Martinez-Tenreiro represented me due to Workman’s Compensation (W.C.) refusing to honor a Settlement Agreement from 2003. In that agreement W.C. was to pay for all medical bills as related to my work related injury until my death or until treatment was no longer required. I had followed all of the requirements related to me under that agreement. W.C. was refusing to pay for a replacement battery and/or new Neuro-Stimulator. W.C. had paid for two stimulator/battery replacements. W.C. attorneys and their pharmaceutical company were attempting to dictate to the treatment provider what medications I should be taking. The hearing was scheduled for April of 2017. I had been on name brand Neurontin since 2001. Whenever a new generic brand of Neurontin came on the market my medication was changed to the generic. I had complications with each time. W.C. was pressuring the doctor to retry the generic medications again. They were also trying to change my time released morphine tablet to a generic that would need be generic that would need to be taken throughout the day. Mrs. Martinez-Tenreiro immediately stopped the W.C. Attorneys from this ongoing situation. The medication was no longer an issue. Prior to the scheduled court hearing my Neuro-Stimulator Battery went completely dead. Due to the pain I was in my Pancreases failed to work. I had no history of diabetes. I ended up in the ICU with an A1C Level of 14. The scale goes to 10. My sugar level was 703. I was diagnosised with Type 1 Diabetes. The morning on the day my hearing was to occur I received a call from Mrs. Martinez-Tenreiro that W.C. had agreed to all of my requests. I had surgery for a new Nervo Stimulator and Battery three days later. Mrs. Martinez-Tenreiro is an incredible attorney who worked on my case late into the evenings and on weekends. She would call me to check on how I was doing and if I needed anything. Mrs. Martinez-Tenreiro truly cares about her clients. I have never met an attorney who would worked so hard to help someone. Thanks to the incredible work and dedication of Mrs. Tenreiro I’ am very proud to report that since having the Nervo Stimulator my Pancreases is now fully functional. I’m no longer on any Diabetic medication. Until recently I had been on some form of narcotic since April of 2001. I also very happy to report I no longer require any narcotics (Morphine). I thank God every day for Mrs. Martinez-Tenreiro, without her excellent expertize I would not have the results I have today. The Endocrinologist tells me each time I see him that I should not be here. People with the A1C and Sugar Levels I had do not live to get another chance. W.C. Attorneys almost cut my life short by refusing to honor a Court Ordered Settlement Agreement. Do not let W.C. do this to you. Seek Mrs. Martinez-Tenreiro help before you have to go through unnecessary pain and suffering so an insurance company can save money at the risk of your health. Mrs. Martinez-Tenreiro and her entire staff are very professional, caring, and work diligently on your case. Mrs. Martinez-Tenreiro and her staff respond to phone calls and questions promptly. I highly recommend Mrs. Martinez-Tenreiro and her staff to represent you.
